Lynn Russell of the fabulous letterpress shop, Satsuma Press, was a guest blogger over at oh so inspirational bridal blog, Style Me Pretty, yesterday, and she shared this tutorial for making a chic and fun garland from yummy cotton ribbon and Japanese masking tape. So pretty!

I can’t help but think that this project will inspire many crafters to create projects using Japanese masking tape, which is super hot right now. Perhaps we’re seeing the start a new trend, a la the recent security envelope trend? Either way, this garland is a simple way to make a big impact at a wedding, birthday party, or any special occasion. Fourth of July garland, anyone?
